Variables

Independent Variable: Gender

Dependent Variable: Remembering Numbers

Variables That Need To Be Controlled: Noisy room, Room Temperature, Time of the day

Vocabulary List That Needs Explanation

General Plan

Well first in my experiment i will take my friends of males and females. Then i will bring them into the room and then i will give them a certain amount of time to remember the number patterns then i will leave the room but make sure the door is not locked. then when the time is up i will walk in and test the males then the femals or the other way around it dosent matter. I will do it five times but each time with other number patterns.

Potential Problems And Solutions

some problems might be that some one might not be feeling well, or they might be tired.

Safety Or Environmental and concerns

make sure the door is not locked, and they is no risk in thisn project.

Experimental Design

What is your experimental unit?

comparing boys and girls.

Number Of Trials:

I will test it 5 times

Number Of Subjects In Each trial:

Two

Number of Observations:

10

When data will be collected

Tommorow

Where will data be collected?:

Hallway

Resources and Budget Table

Item	Number needed	Where I will get this	Cost
Pencils	1	House	0
Paper	20	House	0
Stop watch	1	house	0
people	10	school	0

Detailed Procedure

1. First i will get the males and females
2. Then i will bring them individually into the hallway
3. i will give them 1 min to remember the number patterns
4. Then i will test them
5. then i will record they data in my journal
6. then the to fastest from boys and girls will go again.

Results

My graph shows that boys can remember numbers better then girls. Out of six trials the boys were faster in all of them but one and that one was the five pattern. My graph also shows that boys can remember numbers better then the girls. But the girls did do better in one trial and the section was the five column.

Conclusion

My hypothies stated that boys could remember numbers better then girl and it was right. Because my graph shows that boys can remember things better then girls. The girls beat the guys in one pattern and that pattern was the five pattern but other then that the boys beat the girls in every other pattern. So the boys won most of the patterns but five.

Discussion

there are patterns in my expirement and the boys beat the girls in remembering numbers in the 2,3,7,8,9 patterns but the girls beat the boys in the 5 pattern so thats one pattern and the other is that when the boys remembered numbers there time was all under a minute but when the girls did it they had times when there time was over a minute.i was able to awnser my expirment question when all my data was collected and the boys won so there for the boys can remember numbers better.my expirmebn had no problems and the data did not have any errors cause i recorded it the minute it happened. this expiment could have been improved if i started my expiment earlier then i did because i barrly had any time to do my whole expiment.

Abstract

So my project is remembering numbers and the point of my expirment was to see out of boys and girls which of them could remember numbers better.So i would take a five boys one by one and test them on the number patterns and then i would take five girls one by one and test them. And when i was all done i looked at my data and saw that the boys could remember numbers better then girls can. so after when my experiment was all done then i colleted my data while they were taking the test. But after that i chose another boy or girl.
